I think I may have to forgo evaluating this one, instead maybe we’ll just devote a class to discussing what it takes to write a good film review.Or...
我覺得我也許不得不放棄給這次作業評分了，也許我們可以直接抽一節課的時間討論一下怎樣才能寫出一篇好的影評。或者......
Or maybe...hmm, you know, I have a colleague who writes film reviews for the local paper,
或者也許......我有個同事為本地報社寫影評，
maybe I could ask her to come to class and describe what she does and then have everyone rewrite their reviews.
也許我可以邀請她到班上來，詳細講講她的工作內容，然后再讓每個人都重寫他們的影評。
So, she would talk about what a film review should be like, so we’d know what to do.
她會講講一篇影評應該是什么樣的，所以我們就知道該怎么做了。
Well, more than that. A professional film reviewer gets to see movies sometimes before they are even released.
不僅如此。一個專業的影評人有時候有機會在電影上映之前先睹為快。
They get advance copies---usually a video or DVD---to watch at home or they go to a movie as soon as it opens in the theaters.
他們會提前拿到電影資源，通常是一部視頻或一張DVD，可以在家里看，或者電影一在影院上映他們就會去看。
Um...seeing it on the big screen in a theater, doesn’t that affect the experience?
在影院的大熒幕上看不會影響觀影體驗嗎？
Of course! Having other people there can...can affect the review, too.
當然會！跟影院里的其他人一起看也會影響他們的評論。
So, for the next assignment, I might ask everyone to review one of the films the film club shows every weekend at the theater on campus.
所以，下一次的作業，我也許會讓每個人評價一部電影協會每周末在學校影院播放的電影。
There is no admission charge, they are free to students and the movies are shown on Friday and Saturday nights, plus Sunday afternoon.
不收門票，對學生是免費的，而且放映時間都在星期五和星期六的晚上，還有星期天下午。
So, everyone should be able to see one. Yeah, that should work.
所以每個人應該都能看。是的，那應該有用。
But for this time, will we have to rewrite our reviews?
但是這一次，我們要重寫影評嗎？
Well, let’s take it one thing at a time, let me talk to my colleague.
我們一件事一件事解決，我先問問我同事。
